Yeah, you don't even need pg_upgrade.  Just do

regression=# CREATE ROLE user1; CREATE ROLE user2; GRANT user1 TO user2 GRANTED BY user1;
CREATE ROLE
CREATE ROLE
ERROR:  grantor must be current user

A superuser, or really anyone who's a member of the user1 role,
ought to be able to do that (especially since it used to be allowed).
So it seems the permissions check was coded incorrectly.
